I’m honored to share our latest Member Spotlight interview with Bonnie Thompson, HTCP, CECP/CBCP—a Healing Touch Certified Practitioner, certified Emotion Code/Body Code practitioner, teacher, and presenter whose work blends Healing Touch with a variety of complementary approaches to support healing and nervous system regulation.
Since beginning her journey in energy medicine in 2006, Bonnie has developed a practice that integrates Healing Touch, Emotion Code, Body Code, EFT Tapping, Family Constellations, polyvagal theory, and other energy-based approaches. Through years of working with clients and teaching practitioners, she has gained valuable insights into the importance of understanding the nervous system, listening deeply to each client's story, and supporting the body's natural capacity for healing. In this thoughtful and practical conversation, Bonnie shares the experiences, tools, and lessons that have shaped her Healing Touch journey.
Bonnie's perspective is a wonderful reminder that Healing Touch continues to grow and evolve alongside the practitioner, and that expanding our knowledge and skills can deepen the care we provide to those we serve.
In this interview, you'll learn:
- What led Bonnie to discover Healing Touch and begin her Healing Touch journey
- How her Healing Touch practice has evolved and expanded over the years
- An introduction to Polyvagal Theory and why it can be a valuable tool for Healing Touch practitioners
